The Lytics release much anticipated album Float On
Toronto, ON (Sept. 7th, 2018) – One of Canada’s most talented rap groups The Lytics release their fourth and finest album to date Float On. It’s the record people will remember as the one where the sun rose on the electrifying Winnipeg-based group – consisting of three brothers (Anthony “AOKS” Sannie, Alex “B Flat” Sannie, Andrew O) plus rapper Mungula “Munga” Londe – with clearer eyes, fuller hearts, and a more powerful command of their craft than ever before. This 12 track effort flaunts timeless hip hop sounds, mixed in with R&B, soul, and percussion-heavy beats that stand out and are inimitable.
The timing of this release couldn’t be better. The Lytics are really starting to flourish, just as hip hop’s global boundaries are withering away. Over the last few years, after having rocked shows and won over new audiences in Austin (SXSW), New York, and throughout Europe where they’ve toured extensively – they will be playing dates in Germany, Hungary, and Italy during fall 2018 to support the release – the groups successful bottom lines have shown that there is a wide and diverse audience for their throwback sounds in a trap era.
Between 2016 to now have been banner years for The Lytics as they got to team up with Converse to help launch the brand’s first waterproof Chuck Taylor sneaker featuring their track “Legendary” that was produced in Brooklyn with mentorship support from The Beastie Boys Mike D. And last year, they emerged from the JUNO Awards Master Class – the premiere artist development program in Canada – as winners. Boasting witty wordplay and lyrics, it becomes pretty clear after listening to Float On, that The Lytics are lit.
